FYI... Both the Finnish and Hungarian languages belong to the Finno-Ugric group, the main branch of the Urgic group. So they're neither Slavic, Latin, Germanic or Asian based. But that's why they are so closely related. The people in the Finno-Urgic group started moving apart much longer ago than say the Germanic people. That's why the similarities betwen Finnish and Hungarian is less common than the similarities between Germainc languages. |

And Morgwen Finnish IS a slavic language. I have be setablish long time ago, by sientist in Europe. The language have many dubble letter like dubble "kk" "oo" "uu" and so on, in the Scandinavian language it is not alowed. And the teacher was just following the gidelines setup the the Swedich goverments. and Backman it is clasifide as an slavic language, even if it was long time ago that they moved apart. If I remember right it was about 3000-4000 years ago. In Europe and Asia minor, around 5000-7000 years ago it was a major mowements of groups that moved crisscross, after the last Iceage. Groupes was moving apart and others merge. |

More input: English: http://www.wordorigins.org/histeng.htm French: http://www.infoplease.com/ce6/society/A0858274.html Swedish: http://www.livestation.com/content/d...ge_history.htm So Swedish is a Germanic language, English and French are also influenced by some Germanic languages but, English and French didn`t influence Swedish...
